These photos came from Petra, and are of her miniature hair dressing salon which she blogs about. Thanks for emailing them to me Petra! She's from Germany, and she sent me a very nice email. :) I'm quite curious about this project- it seems like many different hairdresser and barber salons? I love all the details!

Something very different for today!Leanne Eisen is an artist who used miniatures as a commentary on brothels and gender.Make sure you look at her website to see the rest of them. Very interesting, and it's fantastic to see what people can use miniatures for!

"My houses are Lundby houses in 1:16th scale, but I usually change the wall surfaces and alter much of the furniture. These photos show the bedroom and basement living room in my oldest Lundby house. I have made the bookshelf and some of the lamps myself. The bathroom is from my newest house, the Lundby Stockholm and the house came with those walls, and the furniture is also Lundby, but I have found the accessories and done the lighting."

Also everyone, don't forget that the competition ends on Thursday. Which means I'll wait until Australian time zone Friday to make sure Thursday is over everywhere. It's not too late to talk about Fluffybricks, twitter, post entries, or comment!

This was made by Eva."I did this scene as a gift. I made it for my surgeon, a good guy that took care of me when I needed it.I made the scene in humorous key thinking about his sense of humour and because it seems to me that good sense of humour is one of the best medicines.It is a surgeon operating on a big bird :)It is made 90% by myself, with polymer clay and with other materials."

More from my miniatures fair! A smaller scale dollhouse, a fishmongers with mermaid (Owned by W. Hale! And is the mermaid there because she broke in to eat, or is she fake to advertise the fish?), and Miss Havisham in Great Expectations, another 'vignette in a book' similar to Alice in Wonderland. Great work, isn't it!
